However, the arrival of Reverend Fitzroy John ., Fiawygram as the first vicar of St. James's was to be important for the fuwre well-being of the Village. He was the younger son of landed gentry renowned for < their work in social reform. He and his equally ~ dedicated wife poured much of their private fortunes into the village fabric: enabling the"miserable hovels" to be replaced with brick cottages at affordable rents M (a number of these survive today and are character­ -. ised by use of rubble walls faced with thin brick tiles); instituting schools and sports facilities: and encourag­ ing the development of larger villas to bring more o wealth to the village. By the time of the Reverend's premawre death in 1881 Hampton Hill was well on ::J the way to becoming a self-respecting and self-helping community. New Hampton officially changed its name to Hamp­ ton Hill in 1890 and the landmark tower and spire of St.James's Church were raised in celebration of QueenVictoria's Golden Jubilee.The village continued to expand, at a more restrained pace, into the C2Oth.

We have seen a further increase in the number of people sleeping rough this year and a steep increase in the number of people struggling with other types of homelessness. The proportion of our clients with complex health and social care needs has increased again and we are concerned by the rising number of street homeless women and young people in our services. In a context of continued funding cuts across the homelessness sector, we are pleased that our income has remained consistent this year. This allows us to continue to deliver our strategic aims of helping the most vulnerable people in our community effectively – people who have often failed to engage with alternative support and who struggle to access mainstream services.
